New documentary tells tales of Christian persecution

Christians continue to be persecuted and treated unfairly around the world. In an effort to make their experiences more known, Christian Freedom International has launched a new educational series on the persecuted church. The first episode is titled “Remember the Persecuted: Indonesia.”

This 20-minute, fast-paced DVD is segmented into four, five-minute chapters. The first segment tells about three wrongly accused Sunday School teachers are in prison for allowing several Muslim students to attend their class. The second segment offers an in-depth look at Christians fleeing “Jihad Warriors,” a large Christian refugee camp, and a makeshift hospital. The third segment epxlores the forced shutdown of dozens of churches in the Indonesian province of West Java. The last segment tells about the forgotten mostly Christian-populated Nias Island, which was hit by the tsunami and which the mainstream media never mentions.
